During cellular respiration Glucose is reduced oxygen is oxi
Solution
Question 5
During cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced.
In process of cellular respiration occurs in two steps that is one step is break down of glucose molecule and this step is considered as glycolysis.
The second step is aerobic respiration by which the remaining glucose molecule get break down.
During the process of aerobic respiration, the oxygen molecule get reduced that it donating an electron to hydrogen to form water.
In the overall process, glucose get oxidized.
Question 6
All of the following are true of cellular respiration except water is a reactant.
Cellular respiration is a exergonic reaction, during burning of glucose the gibbs free energy change is negative and the reaction is spontaneous so the reaction is considered as the exergonic.
The sugar molecule is oxidized and it is get converted into the carbondioxide and water and during this process heat is released.
Sugar molecule and oxygen molecule are the reactants of the cellular respiration,Water and carbondioxide are products of cellular respiration .
All the above given options are not true of cellular respiration.
